Kim Kardashian in Talks to Star in Live-Action ‘Bratz’ Movie From Amazon MGM

Kim Kardashian is helping to bring the Bratz franchise back to the screen.

Amazon MGM Studios has nabbed the package for a new live-action feature based on the MGA Entertainment toy property, with Kardashian and Picturestart set to produce. Kardashian is in talks to star in the film that is keeping plot details under wraps.

Charlie Polinger and Lucy McKendrick are penning the screenplay. Kardashian produces alongside Erik Feig and Julia Hammer for Picturestart and Jason and Jasmin Larian for MGA. Executive producing is Isaac Larian for MGA.

The Bratz fashion doll toy line launched in 2001 and has sold 200 million dolls worldwide.

MGA was behind Lionsgate’s live-action Bratz movie that hit theaters in 2007. Starring Nathalia Ramos, Skyler Shaye, Logan Browning, Janel Parrish and Jon Voight, the film underperformed at the box office.

Kardashian recently appeared in season 12 of American Horror Story and is filming Ryan Murphy’s Hulu legal drama series All’s Fair, which she also produces. She is the star and producer of the forthcoming Netflix comedy movie The 5th Wheel.

Polinger marked his writing and directorial debut with the Joel Edgerton-led The Plague, which screened this year at Cannes and counts McKendrick as a producer. His next project as writer and director is The Masque of the Red Death for A24 and Picturestart.

McKendrick is writing, directing and will star alongside Toni Collette and Edgerton in the feature Fangs, which is in preproduction and has Polinger producing.

Polinger is represented by Anonymous Content and UTA. McKendrick is repped by 42 and CAA. Kardashian and MGA Entertainment are repped by WME.

Deadline was first to report on the project.
